To all whom it may concern: I

Be it known that I, WILLIAM HENRY J Acn- SON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Ante, in the county of Brunswick and State of Virginia, have invented a new and useful Plow, of which the following is a specification. 7

This invention has relation to plows especially adapted 'to work cottonfand peanut crops and it consists in the novel construc tion and arrangement of its after shown and described.

The object of the invention is to provide a plow of the character indicated which consists of a pair of standards one of which is adjustable, whereby means is afforded for tilting the beam 011 the other side; The said parts as hereinstandards are connected together by a foot and a suitable brace. The forward edge of the forward standard is provided with undercut shoulders which-are adapted to engage and support amold board and plow point. The p ries of bayonet slots which are adapted to engage or receive lugs provided upon a detachable heel. The said plow foot is also provided with a second set of said slots which are adapted to receive lugs provided upon a block to which is attached wings or sweeps. 7

In the accompanying drawings :-Figure 1 is a side elevation of the plow with parts in section. Fig. 2 is a horizontal sectional view of the plow cut onthe line 22 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional view of the foot and heel of the plow cut on the line 33 of'Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a'transverse sectional view of the forward portion of the plowcut on the line 4-4 of Fig. 1. Fig. 5 is a detailed pers ective viewof a portion of a block attachedto the plow. Fig. 6 is a perspective view of'one form of sweep adapted to be attached to the plow, and Fig. 7 is a rear View of a modified form of sweep.

The plow consists of the standards 1 and 2 which are joined together at their lower ends by the foot ,3. The standard 2 is provided with the adjustable telescopic section 4. The beam 5 is attached to the u per end of the standards 1 and 2 andby aciiusting the section 4 of the standard 2 the said beam may be tilted to any'desired an le upon the upper end of the standard 1: The brace 6 is located between the lower portions of the standards 1 and 2 and is adapted to prevent .vided with the groove 14 w ow foot is provided with a seundue vibration between the lower portions and the standards. The standard 2 is provided with a stub 7 to which the handles of the plow are attached. The lower portion of the forward edge of the standard 1 is provided with the undercut shoulders 8, at the upper ends of which is located a sto or stops 9. Theunderside of the mold boar 10is provided with a groove 11 which is adapted to receive the shoulders 8 by being slipped longitudinally along the same until the upper edge of the said mold board enga es the stops 9. The lower edge of the mol board 10 is provided with the depending lugs 12. The under side of the plow oint 13 is pro- Eich terminates in the socket 15. The said socket 15 is adapted to receive the extreme end of the standard 1 while the groove 14,receives the lower ortions of the shoulders 8 by being slip e longitudinally thereon. When assem led theupper edge of the point 13 bears against the lower edge'of the mold board 10 and rests upon the lugs 12 thereof. The bolt 16 passes transversely through the under portion of the point 13 having the groove 14 and the standard 1 and holds the said point and mold board in position. i

The rear portion of the foot 3 is provided with the bayonet slot 17 located in the sides thereof, and each said slot is provided with an' inclined edge 18. The heel 19 is vpro vided with the longitudinally disposed groove 20 the side walls of which areprovided with lugs 21 which are adapted to enter the bayonet slots 17. The lower edges of the lugs 21 are beveled or inclined to correspond with the inclination of the sides 18 of the 1 said slot. At a point between the lower end of the standard 1 and the lower end of the brace 6 the foot 3 is provided with the bayonet slots 22 and the lower portion of the brace 6 is provided with an under-cut shoulder 23. The block 24 is provided inits under side with a groove 25 which is provided at its side with lugs 26. The said lugs 26 are pro-' vided with inclined edges which correspond with similar ed es in the slots 22. The rear portion of the b ock 24 is rovided with a recess 27 which is adapte to fit under the shoulder 23 of the. brace 6. The bolt 28 passes transversely throughthe forward ortion of the heel 19, the foot 3 and the b ock 24 and holds the parts together. The block 24 is provided with the rearwardly inclined &

sweeps or Wings 29 which may be of any ap proved pattern and of such configuration as to be reversed in their positions upon the said fit in recesses provided on the under side? the Wings 29 and the bolts 33 pass transversely through the said Wings and the elongated openings 31 and form means for adjustably securing the Wings in position.

Having described my invention What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters- Patent is A low comprising a beam, front and rear stan ards thereto, a foot connecting the lower ends of the standards together and being provided upon its upper side With an undercut shoulder and upon its lateral sides With bayonet slots, a grooved block adapted to receive the foot and having lugs for enter- ,ing the bayonet slots and being provided at its end with a recess adapted to receive said s h gulder, securing means for holding the block against longitudinal movement on the foot, Wings carried by the block and a plow attached to the forwardstandard.
